Time and Place: Tech trek

I saw Taylor Medford walking down the street on Centennial Olympic Park Drive. He looked like bags with legs. Taylor is about to enter his sophomore year at Georgia Tech and he was just arriving in Atlanta for the start of the school year, he was walking from the MARTA station to his Tech housing. The worst part of college for Taylor? “I thought I hated French in high school but I hate physics so much more, I never thought I would hate anything more than high school French. But I do. It’s Georgia Tech physics.” The best part of college for Taylor? “The freedom, being able to do what you want, taking the classes you want and not having your nagging parents wake you up every morning and tell you to go to class.”

Assuming things haven’t changed too much in the last 10 years, there’s nothing quite like a 7 question multiple choice test with no partial credit.

Beside no partial credit, the dept will tell you there will be no curving on tests…..but when the average is 48 out of 100 they blame the students for the bad grades.
